Reviews from "Solaris"
DISTANT PAST: Solaris
Art Gates Records on Nov. 8 - CD
The new album with Swizz heavy metal band DISTANT PAST is inspired by the novel "Solaris" by Stanislaw Lem and the film adaptation by Andrei Tarkowski. They gives us a very traditional sound, with no traces of modern sounds or synthesizers. So what you can expect is pure guitars, fast pounding drums, machine gun bass and high-pitched vocals - just like in the glory days.
The band was founded by bassist Andriano in 2002 as a studio project, but became a live band when Jvo (EMERALD) joined him in 2014.
They have made a really good album, that should make people of the 80s bands happy. So there really is nothing modern or unique about this band's music. But this is absolutely worth checking out anyway.
